I’ve found the lua file for making them grow faster, and start bigger, but nothing about how many goods they demand.

I’d like to boost it by about 10x… That way, it wouldn’t be possible to supply 4-5 towns from one oil refinery.

The map usually creates so many industries that it’s not possible to use them all, especially if you use long goods trains.

find inside that the 4 functions like:      buildingutil.make_industrial_0_default() ,  buildingutil.make_industrial_1_default() , 

etc….

 

 

inside each functions there is a line:         capacity = { 1, 4 },

change that 1,4 to 1,20

 

 

1,4 means a certain building will demand 1 to 4 goods. 1, 20 will make that building demand from 1 to 20 goods, depending on the development level of that building

 

 

Hope this helps…

Increasing goods demand seems to make bigger towns in the beginning aswell. I increased capacities so that I had 3000-4000 population in the cities and goods demand was about 180-230.

I definitely can’t supply more than 5 towns with one industy even using the most complicated rail network i can build. It makes for a very interesting gameplay….

I’m thinking of doing that too, because i hate how most of my trains carry only just a handful of cars, which makes it look lame and unnecessary.

Did you also modify road vehicles accordingly to 1/4 capacity too?

It works great. This way I at least get to play with long trains…. However the map is not big enough to allow for long trains; it completely breaks my immersion.
